Hey, Let us know each other
I began my journey in a place you might not expect for a UX designer: a physics lab. With a solid 18 years of research experience, I’ve worn many hats, from project manager to principal researcher. My work spanned successful project proposals, grant acquisitions, impactful scientific publications, and numerous presentations at high-level scientific forums. As I progressed through academia, earning a Ph.D. and postdoctoral position at Empa, ETH Zurich, I achieved one of the highest honors in research, the Marie SkÅ‚odowska-Curie Action grant.
​
Yet, I felt the need for something more—an opportunity to apply my skills in a broader, more dynamic context outside of research. I wanted to combine my analytical skills and scientific rigor with my passion for understanding and helping people, which naturally led me to the field of UX design and research. To build on my foundation, I pursued rigorous training in UX and related fields:
